Dr. Nsikak Eka has said the choice of Senator Godswill Akpabio for the position of senate president by the president-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu as a patriotic one that will further engender genuine unity in the country.
Eka while addressing newsmen in Jos yesterday said this is even as the vice president-elect, Senator Kashim Shettima, had explained the rationale behind the decision, which was chiefly, among other things, to avoid a situation whereby the number one citizen, number two citizen, the number three citizen and the number four citizen are all of the same faith.
“With careful observations, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu did not make a mistake for settling for Akpabio to balance the political equation of the country based on the religious and geopolitical entity. The former governor and chairman of the NDDC has an unrivaled track record that has placed him in the proper position to keep contributing positively to national unity and development,” he said.
Dr. Eka while laying credence to his view on a modern-driven system that will stimulate the push for change and drive an all-inclusive administration that will create a meaningful impact on the people, advised Nigerians to support the incoming administration because, according to him, “there is light at the end of the tunnel.”
“All hands should be on deck to move the country forward, detractors don’t mean well for the country and Nigerians must carry their destiny to support Tinubu and the other principals officers to succeed,” Eka said.
